GOP pushback against Trump's actions.


Trump’s cuts hit red states, triggering GOP pushback

A growing number of GOP lawmakers are trying to intervene with the Trump administration and are weighing legislation to circumvent the changes. But with the Department of Government Efficiency and the Office of Management and Budget moving at a rapid clip and flouting federal law to carve up the government, the lawmakers face monumental challenges in getting the White House to spare their constituents from the ax.

Trump is the dildo of the consequences of MAGA actions. He did not arrive lubed.

I expect Trump to carve out some exceptions to these big spending cuts they've made to spending that was approved by congress for people and places who support him.

The right is not going to want to lose the support of part of the base as they continue this push to create a right wing dictatorship. So Trump and the people making these decisions for him will decide that they didn't find corruption and waste across the board, after checking again.

Trump is following the agenda of his constituents: rich people who want their tax cuts, deregulation and oligarchy. The poorer classes can drop dead.

Republican Sen. Katie Britt has been working to make sure the Trump administration’s Department of Government Efficiency doesn’t hit what she called “life-saving, groundbreaking research at high-achieving institutions,” including her state’s beloved University of Alabama.

Kansas GOP Sen. Jerry Moran is worried that food from heartland farmers would spoil rather than be sent around the world as the U.S. Agency for International Development shutters.

And Idaho GOP Rep. Mike Simpson warns national parks could be impaired by cutbacks at the start of summer hiring in preparation for the onslaught of visitors.

“We need to have a conversation with DOGE and the administration about exactly what they’ve done here,” said Simpson, a seasoned lawmaker who sits on the powerful Appropriations Committee. “It’s a concern to all of us.”

These people are so stupid. Why did they think Trump would not come after them? The Leopard Eating People's Faces Party does not care who it eats. Do not vote for them.
